After posting my review, I discovered a few more bugs. Clicking in the blank area of the recipe list caused an Open/Save dialogue to appear. Selecting one of the options under Tools -> Convert caused two Save dialogues to appear, followed by a "Conversation Complete" message and, then, an application crash. I re-launched the program and now the "New Recipe" option is not available (grayed out). "Duplicate Recipe", although available, does nothing. I cannot edit any recipes either.
I'm therefore revising my previous review. Forget A Cook's Books and get iCuistot. Beats it hands down.

Unfortunately, I can't reproduce the described behavior and the reviewer didn't contact me to report it.Tony

I'm glad to hear that he is a responsive programmer. That's great! I'm also impressed by the clearly loyal following this program has. However, I definitely do not believe that it is the best recipe management software out there for the Mac. I've tried many of them and iCuistot stands head and shoulders above the rest.Sunday, May 15 2005 @ 11:16 AM PDT

I've yet to find any "programer" that responses to the users of their software more quickly than Tony. I have no doubt that as soon as he is aware of the "bugs" you've found, they will be worked out!As a chef, I rate this software higher than any of the other recipe applications for the Mac. And, the support is unsurpassed!
